My guess is all the negative speak is from people that seek out things to complain about. Don’t understand why people go on vacation when they already know they are going to look for the bad experiences, instead of having fun and making the most of the situation

I sailed the Vista in February and I found the ship to be dirty, the food in the main dining room was blah and the Liquid Lounge was poorly designed. The decor was bland and the atrium small and lackluster. We were booked in a Cloud 9 suite so there goes your theory of cheap cabin complainers. The only good things about the ship were Matt the cruise director and the comedy acts. For the newest and biggest ship in their fleet the Vista was a disappointment. To each his own. I for one will be sticking to RCL and Celebrity.
